Cat'S Toes.

"lIow many toes has cats'" This
was one fthe questions asked of GER
tain class during examining week, and
simple as the question appears TO be,
none could answer it. In the emergency
the principal was applied to iora soln-
ton, and lie also, with = good natured
smile, gave ii NJ, when one Of the teach
ers, determined not to be beaten by a
simple question, hit en- the idea Of send
ing out 4 delegation of boys to scout the
neishborhood for cat When this idea
was ar8ounccd the whole class wanted
to Join in The hunt. Several boys went
out and soon returned successful. a
returning board was at once appointed
and the toes counted, when, to the relief
of all, it was learned that a Cat possesses

Advice to Mothers.

One of the things Of the utmost i'm.
portance, if a mother would have her
child grow up symmetrical in forn, is to
watch her baby with unceasing vigilance
during his sleep. One able physician
declares that to carclessness upon this
point is due most of the shortncss of life
not produced by actual disease. "Note
your child WE'LL" he said to a young
mother, "when he is asleep, if you would
have him grow up straight. You will
find that from your own habit OF most
conveniently holding him on one partic.
lar side that he will soon grow to prefer
to lie upon one side only.
81 have one patient who is able to
nurse her child only from the right
breast, the left one having gathered aud
so lost the milk, and the left side of that
baby's face is pcrceptibIy smaller than
the right, because from force Of habit
he he has grown to prefer to lie upon his
left side, and she has ignorantly permit
ted him to do so.
"You will find, too, that during his
sleep he will draw up habtualy one leg,
flying on one side, the other leg lying
upon the other. Tnrn him often and
s.rai5hten his legs. This will not only
conduce greatly to his comfort, but much
to yunr own, for frequently, when a baby
stirs and seem inclined to wake it is
because the soft little limbs have grown
tired from lying in one position. Turn
him oyer-not too gently, for by this
very caution you will be most likely to
waken him-draw down his leg, shake
and smoothe his skirts, give him pat
and he is off for another hours nap"
Indeed, I have known babies treated
in this way to sleep along for FIVE or six
hours at a stretch, when otherwise they
would have been up perhaps il, a half
hour, with only half nap. The process
can be repeated with safety just as long
as the baby will stay asleep. Very often
babies waken, not because they want to
rouse at all, but because they want TO
turn over and do not know how to ac-
complish it.
1t stands to reason that child habitu.
ally lying upon one side should habitu-
ally draw up one particular leg, thus
producing, while the bones are soft and
forming, lesser or greater difference in
length, and next, children should be put
into short clothes just as soon as practi-
cable aud should not, at any time be
forced to wear excessively long oues.
The weight of such garments is very
detrimental to the growth and develop
ment of the lower limbs. These (thc
lower limbs) should be well protected
but to put upon q little baby two or three

little fellow himself, and keep them to
place by pinning them so tight around
him that he cannot breathe, is not "pro.
teclion," it is cruelty.
The garments should be so short as tc
insure at least a moderate degree of free
dom of action. 1t will do the baby good
to go naked little while each day, tt
kick and fence at his own sweet will
Let the room be warm, hot if you c, oce /,

muscles be strengthened in all parts o
his body.-IhiMdslhia Times.

The Rev. AIr. Allen is teaching at
Haynes. He occupies new house, too,
but not such one as we hoped to find.
Probably the trustees had an eye to econ
omy when they had that house put up.
1t will not begin to compare with the
houses we found in Garvin. However,
Mr.. Allen and the children said they
were comfortable, and were pushing
ahead with their work. The school is
small, but the smallest schools are not
always the poorest by good deal.

We found the school at Glenn's in a
sound condition. Miss Dunwoody, the
teacher, furnished abundant evidence o.
faithfulness in the discharge of her du-
ties. We found her in nice, neat
framed building, recently constructed
and sufficiently large to accommodate
the school. Miss Dunwoody has her
heart in her work, and rules her pupils
by kindness, the key to all substantial
discipline. We need not to have been
told that the teacher in that school was
an attentive pupil in the Teachers In.
stitute last summer. Evidences of that
fact were noticeable on every hand. We
like the black. board we found there and
like the way it has been used. There is
good material there, and we trust Miss
Dunwoody may succeed in developing it.
Located in fine community, there is no
reason why there may not be a fine
school regularly at that place.

That was a pleasant day spent with

table, in large measure, TO the zeal and
energy of Prof. w. I. Lander, of the
Williamson Female College. Prof
Lander is a live man in school room
whether teaching children, or teaching
teachers. The day was spent in teach
ing Mr.. Thacker's school; methods were
tried by actual test with the classes,
objections were raised, and evils reme'
died. al. the teachers took part and
every one professed full compensation in
what lie learned and the inspiration he
gathered from the exercises. The next
meeting will be held at Pelzer with Mr..
Langston's school on the second Friday
in March. Prof. Lander speaks of or
ganizing similar movement among the
colored teachers of that district. lie is

The teacher, Mr.. r. w. Todd, took sick
Tuesday last, and has not been able to
resume his labors. We hope he may
soon be restored to health and return to
the school. The house is small and the
school large, the condition of things that
initiates so seriously against the success
of the public schools in this county.

1t is a treat to visit the schools in Gar
vim Township. Their HOUSES are far above
the average, and their teachers arc among
the foremost. The Lebanon school num-
bercd only 10 pupils the day wc called,
and that WAS not good day for the bus
iness either. Mir. Holland is bringing to
bear some of the system he learned in
Nashville. Though necessarily very
crowded, takin. into consideration the
size Of the school room, the children
were as orderly as could be expected.
His assistant, Miss Matte Clark, seemed
t. be at home teaching the Eve little
ones" whose name is legion. The new
school. house in process Of erection is, in
our judgment, too small to meet the de-
mands of that community. 1t should be
at least twenty feet longer and ten feet
wider, and contain two rooms. True,
the school will not be so large after a
while, but, when at its lowest, it will he
sufficiently large 70 use two rooms very
advan;ageous!y. We noticed, 100, that
the new house is to have q chimney. In
our Judgment, two stoves would be pre-,
ftrablc. However, wood is plentiful
there, and Il large fire place with the
stove they have may suffice. Mr.. llol-
land is doing grand work and rejoices
in the sympathy and support of his
pa.rOns.

Mr.. w. S. Lee is teaching at new
location on the road between Five Forks
and Slabtown. A school has been long
needed there. We had abundant evil
dence of that. Mr.. Lee seemed to be
pegging away in earnest, surrounded by
a handsome array Of Webster's blue
backs. The house, recently built, is
beautifully located in q grove OF pines
and cedars. With a little work at re.
cess the children might make it a very
attractive place. We hope the teacher
may have the hearty support of his
patrons, and that he may put in some of
his best licks for those children.

END OF TEE MINERS STRIKE.
Conference Between the Operators and
Laborers Results in Compromise.

There was conference of the miners arbitra-
ton committee here Friday night that sue
ceeded in agreeing upon a settlement of the
difficulties that have existed between the oper-
ators and the miners in the southwestern part Of
the State for time. Six weeks
ago six hundred men in the en-
ploy of Cable, Coffin s. Co., the
largest operators in Daviess county, struck
for an advance in wages of about 10 per cent.
above the prevailing prices. The strike spread
and soon included over 200 men. Mr.. Cable
and Robert Foster, president Of the State FEEDER
alton OF Miners. met here and canvassed the
matter. Mr. Foster insisted upon the advance.
Mr. Gable said his company was willing to make
some concessions. but could not pay the raise
asked. as their only outlet was by the o. g. NJ.
railroad, over which they had to pay very high
freight rates Finally. agreement
was reached the stipulatons of which were
made public. An advance decided upon,
however. which is known to be but little less
than the amount asked by the strikers, and the
settlement may be considered victory for
them. It is expected that work in the mines
will be resumed tomorrow, aud will result in
increasing the coal supply.

DIR. GaIbraith,s Diploma.

The Journal stated on Friday that the report
OF the State Board OF Health showed that DR..
Galbraith, the new superintendent of the In
sano Hospital. was licensed to practice medicine
under tho ten-years' clause of the medical law.
and not as a graduate of a reputable medical
college. On the basis Of this official informa-
ton, in view of the law dividing medical prac-
tctioners into the two classes, the assertion was
made respecting DR.. Galbraith. The Doctor
communicates TO tho Sentinel, and calls the
Journals attention to the same, :he fact that
he graduated from the Ohio Med
ical College in 1866, and has, be-
side, the advantage of three years in Bellevue
Hospital. New York city The Journals state
ment was based entirely upon the publication
in the Board Of Health report. and without any
desire TO reflect unfairly upon DR.. Gabraiths
attachments and experience n general medi-
cal practitioner. The Doctors license issued
under the tenyear clause of the law, but he is
entitled to it upon the ground of graduation and
diploma from the Ohio college, as stated.
